The Wellesley Historical Society is holding its Fall Golf Classic on Monday, Oct. 19 at one of the oldest golf clubs in the country — Nehoiden on the grounds of Wellesley College,

The event is open to the public for a contribution of $50 per player, and includes a continental breakfast, greens fees, 18 holes of golf, lunch, and prizes. There are no golf carts, so be ready to walk a few steep hills.

Breakfast will begin at 7:30 a.m. and the format will be a scramble with a shotgun start at 8:00 a.m. To sign up or for more information, contact Erica Dumont at (781) 235-6690 or e-mail her at director@wellesleyhistoricalsociety.org.
